Bokeh

[benny]

luckily I don't have M camera hahaha

A temporal inconvenience that can be quickly remedied. When do you want to pick it up?

Cheers,

Not again. The temptation from Benny Vs Choy.

King of Bokeh with a premium price.

Resistance is of no greater power. It's easier to pick it up.

Why?

I thought the classic-ness of the Leica M is sweet.
Saw some nasty pics from it on the net from such a fine camera+lens but I think it's the photographer isn't it?

I'm hooked on digital at the moment. I can still ps the bokeh if I want to[or have to!] [Yes-I so desperately need to belong-sad isn't it? ]

[benny]

Stan,

There are also digital options for rangefinders. At this point in time, it's only restricted to the problematic Leica M8 and the defunct Epson R-D1/s.

Take your pick.

I WILL RESIST!

I want a D700...badly...

[benny]

D700... I was playing with it the other day. Seems like quite a good camera as compared to D3. So many toys, so little time, too little money..... Sigh...

Cheers,

Oh, D700, I want too. Mass orders??

RESISTANCE IS FUTILE !!!
you have already been poisoned

Dam n Benny-you have played with a D700 already? sigh. RM 8K+ does not suddenly drop from the heavens. Must work hard...

Yes I have. It's impressive.

You want it. You know the new functions are well worth the extra moola. You need it. You will get it. It's inevitable. Resistance is futile. It will be yours. Why later when it can be sooner? Time is not our friend. There is no pleasure in denying yourself.

Stan is an auto-masochist.

OT OT OT! Help!

Hi Guys,
Saw this thread on bokeh at cs, thought I share it here,
some awesome bokeh there.

[hwchoy]

so are you ready to chuck your 17-50/2.8?

actually I don't agree the ones in that thread are all good bokeh. in fact the first one from Planar T* 50mm f/1.4 is disastrous! most of the portraits ones are great (Nikkor 85/1.4 and CZ 135/2).

[StanChung]

Sharp eye! I think those with the sharp green/purple line on the OOF 'O's can be considered closer to eeeeww and those with melt your eyes kind is creamy sibeh sui.

Crisscross line OOF's pics are harder to judge bokeh IMO.

Buy buy buy ... it's impressive right??
